2011 MSR Lightning Ascent Womens

What began as a solution for women has become the top choice of anyone with a narrow gait, or those seeking the lightest possible alternative in our most aggressive snowshoe. We engineered our Women’s 360° Traction™ Frames in conjunction with a renowned expert in athletic biomechanics resulting in a lower-profile frame that saves weight and improves agility with narrow gaits. Paired with our new, most secure, dual-component PosiLock™ AT bindings to create our most secure attachment, Modular Flotation tails, Pivot™ Crampons and new, easily-engaged Ergo™ Televators back you up with every step.

Unrivaled Traction: 360° Traction frames and Pivot crampons deliver unmatched, edge-to-edge security on any terrain and in any conditions, with advanced ergonomics tailored to a narrow gait.
Secure Attachment: Two-piece, independently conforming PosiLock AT bindings create our most secure, freeze-resistant attachment, regardless of footwear.
All-Condition Adaptability Modular Flotation tails allow you the maneuverability of a smaller, primary snowshoe with the added, on-demand flotation of optional, 5-inch (13-cm) tails.
Uphill Efficiency: Ergo™ Televators reduce fatigue and increase traction on the steeps with an ergonomic design that engages with a simply flick of a pole grip.
Low-Profile: Narrow frames are idea for women, those with a narrow gait, or anyone seeking the lightest snowshoe possible.
